Ø The grouping of digits in big numbers is not universal. Several different
systems are in use globally.
This is unfortunate, but I don’t see it as a show-stopper. 1000000 and
1_000_000 and 100_0000 would all be legal and result in the same value.
Although I personally prefer groups of 3, I’d still consider groups of 4 to be
more readable than no grouping at all.
Besides, this is hardly the only locale issue. I would think that being forced
to use “.” instead of “,” (rather than the reverse) to separate the fractional
part of a number is much more unsettling to some.
I believe that the advantages of allowing “_” grouping exceed the disadvantages.
